		<description>vlogs are enjoyed by people with high speed internet. Those of us who lack access to high speed will always be left out. But those who can enjoy it, go for it! Just because I&#039;m walking I don&#039;t fault those of you driving Jaccuzis or whatever those cars are called.</description>

		<description>I didn&#039;t mean that you wouldn&#039;t do a good job--I saw you on tv. But I enjoy reading what you have to say more than watching. Actually, if anyone is a good writer, that&#039;s enough for me.</description>

		<description>A video blog isn&#039;t my preferred way of getting information. I can read much faster than listen.

That being said, I like the idea of getting to know my favorite bloggers a little better via a video blog posting or other means. I know what the Powerline guys sound like and know what Charles Johnson looks and sounds like now. It adds a little to reading to internally hear it in their voice.</description>

		<description>video blogging is ok but I prefer the written word. Viewing vblogs is time consuming. It takes longer to load. If you&#039;re 2/3 through the video and something makes you want to go back and view something earlier in the video, it&#039;s much harder to backtrack than scrolling back up through the printed blog. In Kathleen&#039;s video she names several bloggers and suggest that you google them to locate the video. What if you don&#039;t spell it correctly? Googling it can be time consuming. Whereas in the printed blog, chances are the blogger will at least spell correctly. If they&#039;re as good as you La Shawn, they will link it right there in the blog so one click will get you there.

I viewed Kathleen&#039;s video on my lap top. I could see it fine but without my earphones, the audio quality was not that great.

On the other hand, one can receive more communication through a video. The inflections in your voice, facial expressions and other &quot;body language&quot; can add a lot to what you are saying through your words. I would carefully view your video, La Shawn, to pick up any nuances that would help me understand who you are and where you&#039;re coming from. And yes, I would also enjoy seeing that smile &quot;in motion.&quot;

Overall, I still prefer the written word over the &quot;talking heads.&quot;</description>

		<description>Okay. You&#039;re cute.  You&#039;re smart.  You&#039;re (overly) sensitive.  Sure.  We would like to see if you can &#039;take it to the stage.&#039;  I mean come on.  If Kevin Federline can &#039;rap&#039; at the Teen Choice Awards, surely Ms. Barber can video blog.  And the feedback should be quite interesting.  You&#039;re goona do it and I can&#039;t wait.</description>

		<description>If you can deliver in video half as well as you write, then it would rock!!!  I think you should go with a weekly video blog so you have more good material to work with.  While I love Hotair&#039;s daily videos, sometimes they have to scrape the bottom of the barrel for material.</description>

		<description>As long as you go into it with your eyes open and no illusions.

You are going to be judged.  Even if people don&#039;t say anything, they are still judging.  There&#039;s no getting around that.

Actually, it&#039;s the ones who don&#039;t say it, but you know they are thinking it.

At least the ones who say it are getting it all out in the open ---the gloves are off, and we don&#039;t have to pretend.

I&#039;m talking about appearance.

People are going to judge your hair and makeup.

Whether they say anything or not.  Sometimes not saying something ...says it all.

It&#039;s just human nature.

I&#039;d say as long as you don&#039;t go on video in a bathrobe and curlers.....you&#039;ll do just fine.

Actually that would be funny, as a gag, wouldn&#039;t it?  Do the bathrobe and curlers thing !</description>

		<description>I say, do it! Do it, Ms. Barber, do it.

You&#039;re beautiful because you speak the truth. And nothing could be more clear on video.</description>

		<description>La Shawn:


As a GUY, I can&#039;t say I wouldn&#039;t like to see you &quot;in motion&quot;. It might bias the political opinions you express, but it sure would be &quot;cool&quot;. 

After all, if I didn&#039;t like it, there would be something wrong with me. 



But feel assured - between the &quot;cool&quot; I would be thinking clearly about what you were saying - most of the time.


PS - the person who doesn&#039;t like the Michelle Malkin videos is just a &quot;spoiler&quot;. They don&#039;t know they are missing a &quot;cool&quot; person, and someone who has a great message and is just a great stand up comic.</description>

		<description>Just a suggestion, but try making a demo, watch it critically, then let a few people whom you trust to critique it honestly watch and give you honest feedback. Then watch it again yourself. Then decide if this is something you want to put out for the world.

You might be marvelous at it and you might not. Everyone has their own talents. I hope you are good at video, because I think it would be pretty interesting. But I just keep thinking of all the homespun business ads on TV, done by business people who think they are really great on camera - and aren&#039;t.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m all for it, La Shawn.  As one of the most articulate and intelligent of bloggers, you would do well on video.

And at the risk of being called a male chauvinist, I&#039;d like to point out that the conservative video blogs seem to have all the attractive ladies, so you would fit right in with that company.  :-)</description>

		<description>La Shawn, I love to read your work. I do enjoy &quot;Hot Air&quot;, but You have a way with the written word that I don&#039;t believe video can improve upon. That being said, if you decide to do it, I&#039;ll watch.</description>
